Renaissance Richmond.com (Finding Architectural History and Following Historic Preservation in Richmond, Virginia) is a blog by Jessica Bankston which she began when she was a graduate student in VCU’s Architectural History department. It is a lovely blog filled with exquisite details on the history of our city’s buildings. It makes me so happy to think of all the amazing people who are devoting themselves to preserving these parts of our history as we go forward to redefine ourselves, our city ever better, ever better.

This Richmond blog, “The Shockoe Examiner,” which is “blogging the history of Richmond-in-Virginia” makes me so happy I can hardly contain myself.
The bloggers are T. Tyler Potterfield, historic preservation planner and author of “Nonesuch Place: A History of the Richmond Landscape,” Ray Bonis, archivist at VCU’s Cabell Library, Catherine L. Easterling, preservation planner at the City of Richmond, and Selden Richardson: Architectural historian and author of “Built By Blacks: African American Architecture and Neighborhoods in Richmond, Virginia.”
Mary Wingfield Scott would be so pleased.
Here’s a post on the 1400 Block of Main Street, ca 1910.

I have joined Joyner Fine Properties. I will miss all of the wonderful people at Virginia Properties and Long & Foster who I was lucky enough to work with for the first three years of my real estate career, but fortunately I have just moved a couple of blocks away. I am also still just a couple of blocks away from my lovely and talented daughter Corie at Mango Salon.
I am excited to be at Joyner. Loving Richmond as I do, it really means a lot to me to be part of a local company, focused on every aspect of the Richmond real estate market.
